1 - Magnetic WristBuddy:

The magnetic WristBuddy keeps everything within easy reach whether you’re under the hood, squeezing into a bathroom cabinet, up a ladder or just nailing a few 4×2’s together! Designed to hold lots of screws, nails, nuts and washers, the magnets are amply strong enough to also hold drill bits, hex keys, bolts, screwdrivers and even spanners.
Made from extremely durable 1680D Oxford cloth, your WristBuddy will be with you for years to come.

2 - Magnetic, Extendable, Flexible Flashlight

The perfect tool for finding that lost screw that rolled under your workbench or the pins that dropped onto the carpet! This bright, COB LED flashlight extends to a full 60cm (2ft), has a flexible neck and a strong magnet in the lens surround. It's also a wonderful aid for anyone with bad knees.

3 - Three Function COB LED Headlamp

How often have you wished for better lighting while doing a job? All you needed was a third hand with a flashlight, right? This tough, fully adjustable headlamp uses the latest Chip On Board LED technology for maximum performance. Set it for bright, normal or strobe function with a click of the switch.
Weighing just 65 grams (2.25 oz), including the three AAA batteries, our headlamp can be worn hour after hour. And because it's both shock and water resistant, it's great for camping and fishing as well as in the home and workshop.

Healing a nation with love – a New Year Resolution

2018 promises to be another year that challenges our collective patience and our efforts at civil discourse. It will therefore be doubly important this coming year to remember that hatred, anger, and greed are expressions of fear. The only antidote to fear is love.

Only love for each other can heal a divided nation.

Yes, I know we need transformation, but…

Like so many others, I believe we need major transformations of our political and economic systems. But I know that we are not going to get there by yelling at each other across the political divide.

It’s how we react to news, not the news itself…

I can’t do much about the train wreck of bad news that passes before my eyes every day, but I can change how I react to this news. My resolution is that I am going to look for solutions in everything I read, instead of piling on the outrage bandwagon. The saying that ‘if you’re not a part of the solution, you’re a part of the problem‘ rings true.

I’m going to try a little harder in the coming year to understand where everyone else is coming from. To realize that greed is to deny others, that anger blocks dialogue, and that fear paralyzes, is to understand that love is the only way out of this cultural and political impasse. We need each other to successfully resist the impersonal forces at work in our society and world.

So my New Year Resolution is to try and be less reactionary and more thoughtful and constructive in my response to events.

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!
